Multi-threaded performance - media encoding
There's nothing to separate Intel chipsets in our media-encoding tests. What's telling is just how much faster the Core 2 Extreme X6800 is than AMD's Athlon 64 FX-62 AM2 CPU.
Multi-threaded performance - professional software
Performance is also extremely impressive with multi-threaded software apps., again demonstrating the power of the Core 2 Extreme X6800 CPU. Gigabyte's P965 board takes top slot in both tests. Generally, though, it can be thought of as providing i975X-like performance.
